Home Maintenance and Home Repair

Though Labor Day just passed and is usually the final send off to summer, we know that fall is just around the corner. Sure there will be a few more days with hot temperatures, but the nights will be cooler and fall home maintenance will be on the minds of many in the Murfreesboro area.

Paint

Exterior paint can be one of the first steps to improve the look of a home. If paint is peeling or cracking, then it is a good sign it is no longer protecting the home. If left unattended, then it could cost more to repair down the line.

Gutter Cleaning

Once the leaves begin to fall, gutter cleaning is a top priority. Leaf guards can aid in protection, but clogged gutters can cause more damage in the winter if they are not cleaned properly

Roofing Inspections

Weather conditions from season to season can destroy roofs. Rain, ice, wind, snow are all contributors and homeowners should be proactive when maintaining roofs as it is always the first barrier against most elements.
